The lockout may be over, but there are still plenty of questions about what it will mean for the future of the NHL. Will you be watching this season, or has the lockout turned you off hockey for good?

What will the long-term impact be for players, and what can we expect next season? Join our panel and discuss the aftermath of the lockout: Aubrey Kent is the founder of the Sport Industry Research Center at Temple University (he’s also Canadian, so he comes by his hockey expertise naturally) and Joel Maxcy is a sports economist who specializes in labour issues.

Joining Prof. Kent and Prof. Maxcy will be Canadian journalist Jonathon Gatehouse, author of a recent biography of Gary Bettman, and some of Postmedia’s own hockey experts, including Stu Cowan and Sean Fitz-Gerald. Join our discussion and get full analysis of the NHL situation, Monday at 2 p.m. ET.
